Update on Brandon
Brnadon is now weighing 24.7 pounds. YEA!! He has gained 3 pounds in 3 months. He still struggles with eating solids unless it is Cheese Puffs, Crackers and of course Cookies. He is now drinking out of a sippy cup except for a morning bottle only. We still struggle with drinking anything else besides Milk. We even add Carnation instant breaksfast or Pedisure with his drinks in order for him to get all of the nutrients he needs. So far with the weight gain I guess it working. Feeding time is still a struggle with him. You never know if he is going to eat or not. Brandon still likes for someone to feed (Lazy) but we are trying to get him to use the spoon or fork. In time with lots of patience we will get through this. I have said one day when he is a teenager we will wish he was little again and not eating everything up in the house. Brandon has recently started to enjoy books on his own. He gets so bad at you if you are not paying attention to him when he points and says something. Brandon's vocab is coming along. He is still recieving ECI help through Oral Motor Therapy and Fine/Gross Motor Therapy. He loves to see school buses and trucks. With time he will talking up a storm.

Brianna
She growing like a weed. At her last check up which we did early due to getting another round of synagis shot she grew 2 inches. She now is 28 1/4 inches long and 17 lbs 13 oz. She is definitely taking after the Kelley family (mommy's side). She is now wearing atleast a size 6 -9 top and 9-12 pants(more on the larger side due to her long legs).
She is rolling all over the living room floor giving mommy and daddy a rough time. Brianna loves to laugh(with her sneaking laugh) when mommy tells her "no". She is making lots of sounds including dada. She gets extremely excited when the woof woof aka "Summer" comes running near her. She is finally sitting up and staying up for awhile. She is starting to pull herself up on mommy and daddy. Brianna is a little toot when it comes to Brandon. She loves taking his toys and especially his pacifier. She doesn't even use a pacifier. She loves to hit balls together and also clap her hands together. At dinner time she is still eating level 2 foods and drinking 4 (7-8 oz) bottles a day. She gets extremely cranky when she is tired but heaven forbid you just put her in her crib. She acts like it is the end of the world. When she does fall asleep she can sleep through anything. On weekends she loves to sleep in not like her brother who is an early riser. She takes after her Daddy "before babies".

Brandon
After his battle with viral infections, bronchitis and pnuemonia he is finally coming back to the HAPPY little boy we love so much. He lost so much weight in the last two months. At his 9th month check up which we did 1 week and 3 days early he weighed the same he did at 7 months. He is now 14 lbs 12 oz. (Yea he gained 11 oz in one week after being in the hospital). He is still shorter than Brianna - he has grown 2 inches. He is 26 3/4 inches long. Poor baby he has been through so much in the last 2 months. Last Monday he got tested for allergies and the results came back negative. We are now being referred to an asthma/allergy specialist to figure out if he has asthma since. Another thing thing we are going to look into having him tested for is cystic fibrosis (because of how often he is sick)and Down Synrome. Guen is waiting on the referrals to go through in order to have thse test run and to see the allergists. We will keep you informed.
He is still trying to figure out how to get off of his stomach when he rolls onto to it. He gets so frustrated that he can not do something. He might not be rolling all over the floor quite yet however, he manages to get around. He is funny about taking his breathing treatments - he looks like he is smoking. We will get a picture of it soon.
FIRST TOOTH
TODAY daddy was feeling around in Brandon's mouth and found out the hard way that Brandon HAS a HIS FIRST TOOTH. Yea! he beat his sister on who was going to get the first tooth. He never even showed any signs of getting a new tooth.
